War Is...

Line them up make them stand

Let the people countermand

Reaching for the upper hand

Casting lots to rule the fairyland

War is love, war is hell

And in our minds we will never know

Was it a show

And the magic gets stronger that keeps us from seeing in

Start the clock fire the gun

I'll wait to see who will outrun

Feeding on comparison

Plastic faces stand up to the sun

And in our minds we will never know

Was it a show

And the magic gets stronger that keeps us from seeing in

Perfect tie perfect hair

Perfect coach perfect stare

Perfect speech perfect flair

Perfect chill perfect scare

So I'm glad that its not me

Who has the ring or holds the key

Or has to call the family

Or makes a mark on all eternity

And in our minds we will never know

Was it a show

And the magic gets stronger that keeps us from seeing it

War is love war is hell
